So far the Cards have done nothing but dump salary

Post by Web7 »

Gray for May saved them money ….. they added a couple of arms and that’s it …… what about this pathetic offense? Nothing has been done for the present or the future…. Nothing but a lot of [nonsense] so far …..
Maybe Bloom will surprise us ….. I’m not holding my breath

Gray for May saved $7.5M and netted 2 prospects: Fitts and Clarke.

They owed Gray $40M/1yr or $65M/2yr.

They are now paying Gray $20M/0yr and May $12.5M/1yr for a total of $32.5M/1yr.

May won't likely cover all of the innings Gray would have covered, but Fitts + May together should get those innings covered.

If they were dumping money, they would’ve traded Gray for a bag of balls.

The question was about our 29th ranked offense.

For a team that is supposed to be rebuilding there sure is a lot of building that isn’t happening. We did not even send a top five prospect to AFL if I’m not mistaken.

Rebuilding takes time.

But it's stupid to say an architect is brilliant before he's built anything.

They're not building on a new site. They're rebuilding on an existing site. They had to get the architectural plans together. Re-build some of the infrastructure surrounding the site. Tear down the old. Get the foundation laid. Build the new.

I'm done torturing the metaphor.
